Looks like Chris Allen, beating Paul in round 1, only won two more. 54th.

Gold squadron just reported that the top table went to final salvo with only a single damage being done in the game before time.
Anyone else pretty upset about this? Obviously I'm not there so I have no clue what really happened, but this for sure is not what I want from this game.
Rebel regen for you. Also, 1 game doesn't mean anything
Then something needs to be done about regen. Or something needs to be done to assure players engage and stay engaged. There is no excuse for a game to appear as if it is in turn 3 after 75 minutes of gameplay at the top table of the highest level event for said game.
Note I am not upset with the players. They likely saw no good engagement opportunity, and, as they are at the top table, decided to take their chances on the salvo with a good MOV guaranteed either way. FFG did a good job of ridding the game of the silly modified wins, but I don't think they are done yet if things like this are still possible.
One of the players was flying triple Defenders. I guess something should be done about Rebel regen AND Imperial agility.

I'm all for it. I'm all about the nerf hammer baby.
I think it is pretty amazing that game went to a draw. I think if I were playing that Rebel list I would be more aggressive. A final salvo is not good for that matchup. 9 dice vs 5 dice.
What with the 4-point bid?
Somebody is flying my favorite list. Go buddy Go!!!
- 96pt Mindlink Fangaroo
- Fenn Rau (32) + Mindlink + title + AT
- Old Teroch (30) + Mindlink title + AT
- Manaroo (34) + Attanni Mindlink + K4 + Unhinged + Feedback
He's 4-1
To elaborate even further:
In a Fangaroo mirror match, the init makes so much difference because of the Manaroo, Palob and Teroch triggers in combination with mindlink. Player with init chooses to go 2nd, as they get postional advantage (hello there Teroch/Fenn), but also forces the other player to move all of their tokens before any of your triggers. This allows Teroch and Palob to have maximum impact, while your opponents triggers are significantly neutered (steal a token off Fenn? It's okay, Manaroo will throw one back).
Anyone who wants to know more about Mindlink - specifically mindlink Fangaroo have a listen to the last couple of 186th Squadron Podcast, we've been banging on about it for a while!
Shhhhh, no one really wants to know. Might as well just delete that post

That's probably Charlie (currently 3rd), he's been practicing with Ryad, Vessery and a Glaive (all with x7 and crack shot) since he lost to that exact list in the final of the Belgian national.
I suppose we should also nerf the things that can one-shot defenders and regen guys like Mr. Horn *cough* *Bossk* *cough*. Might as well just nerf the whole game while we're at it. Naked Academy Pilots for everyone!

How come neither of the Eide boys are on that list?
Maybe they are playing tomorrow
Any word on what Dee Yun or Ryan Tackle (Mynock) are flying?
And I don't see Dallas Parker in top 82... is that the end of the TIE swarm?

I wonder if Heaver will play on Sunday. He was thinking he'd play Imperial Assault if he was 4-2.

How the hell does HE get through all those palp green dice
I must know!!!!!!
(Yeah its probably ketsu but easier said than done)
So, what's the RonCon Special? Or will we see that tomorrow?

I saw your post which is why I brought it up again.
Remi Dumais placed 10th today,
I play once in a while against him, always fun and challenging.
He's using Palp Shuttle with OL, Inq, Wampa - a variant of a list I played before Omega and Inquisitor were available - Palp shuttle, jax, colzet and wamp.
I much prefer a 4th ship instead of double defenders or whisper/soontir/or whatever ace we often saw with Palp shuttle.

Isn't that the Asajj + 2 TLT Ys list Paul Heaver is flying? NonRonCon being Miranda, Braylen, Biggs?
